The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Hi techwhirlers,
I'm about to embark on the career path of freelance
technical writing. (And wishing I'd paid attention to all those
previous posts...<sigh>)
I've obtained the appropriate local business certificate for a sole
proprietorship.
My first (of probably many) questions is:
What sorts of contracts do I need to protect myself from liability?
Thanks a bunch,
Debbie
